Feasibility study of fuel reactor to produce synthetic gas as an alternative energy

This research is focused on the feasibility of the Fuel Reactor in order to produce synthetic gas. The Fuel Reactor uses ordinary tap water and low voltage electrical energy for producing a synthetic gas. High temperature (3000-4000°C) plasma is generated underwater by an electrical arc between carb...
